It's Oktoberfest Time in Addison

More than 60,000 are expected to gather in Addison Circle Park for four days of music, dancing, and, of course, beer.

The festival is free for early birds that show up during Thursday's kick-off from 6 to 11 p.m., but admission will rise to up to $10 for the later dates. Discounted admission can be snagged at DFW area Albertons, or by getting in before 5 p.m. on Saturday or Sunday.
